The spring 2010 RopeWalk Visiting Writers Reading Series will continue at 5 p.m. on Thursday, March 25 in Kleymeyer Hall in USI's Liberal Arts Center with a reading by Eric Puchner.

Puchner is the author of the story collection Music through the Floor, a finalist for the New York Public Library Young Lions Fiction Award. His short stories have appeared in Zoetrope: All Story, The Chicago Tribune, The Sun, The Missouri Review, Best New American Voices and many other journals and anthologies. He is the recipient of the Pushcart Prize, a Wallace Stegner Fellowship, and a National Endowment for the Arts grant. His first novel, Model Home, was published earlier this year.

A resident of Los Angeles, California, Puchner is an assistant professor of literature at Claremont McKenna College.

All readings in the RopeWalk Reading Series are free and open to the public. A reception and book-signing will follow the reading.

Presented by USI's College of Liberal Arts, the RopeWalk Visiting Writers Reading Series is made possible through the support of RopeWalk Writers Retreat, Southern Indiana Review, USI Society for Arts & Humanities, National Endowment for the Arts, Indiana Arts Commission, and USI Student Writers Union.
